Freelancer Overview

I have extensive experience in data labeling and preparing training data for AI models across a variety of domains. With over 5 years working on data labeling projects, I have labeled data for computer vision tasks like image classification and object detection, as well as natural language processing tasks like sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, and text classification. I am highly skilled in using data labeling tools and platforms like Cloud Factory, Scale AI, Labeled.com, and Appen. I have worked on projects spanning e-commerce product catalogs, medical imaging, social media content moderation, and more. A key strength is my ability to understand and apply detailed labeling taxonomies and guidelines consistently and accurately. I also have experience in quality assurance, data validation, and managing teams of data labelers. My skills in data labeling are complemented by my educational background with a BS in Computer Science, allowing me to deeply understand the data needs for training robust AI/ML models.
